Dungeon Keeper is a strategy game developed by Bullfrog for DOS and Windows PCs. Ports to the Sega Saturn and PlayStation were due to be released in 1996, but were cancelled.

The programmer working on the ports, Carsten-Elton Sorensen, was hired in June 1996 and claimed the Saturn version looked good, in part because of the system's quadrilateral-based polygons (instead of the usual triangles). The game was around 10% complete before work switched to the PlayStation version, which in turn was cancelled due to memory limitations[2].
